Downhill

Author's Note: Written back on 16 March 2010 posted on FB but only made it on because I finally remembered my password :P. This was a theory I looong thought of before the recent scanlations came up *cough*. Original note: I'm having words come to me for a little thing~ and funnily enough my music (for once) ISN'T matching it - its too darn happy and upbeat. So I've lowered the volume down and here I go unedited:


I can't explain in words how this girl has got me shattered at this very moment. I'm royality, from another world and I'm never speechless, but here I am, frowning because all I can do in this body is frown.

She's forgotten everything and... I knew this from the very start when I accepted this mission from Him. But I thought a piece of her would not forget. Would not forget that one moment of love. What can I expect in this form, she does not remember. She cannot remember how she traced her finger down my scarred jawline and smiled at me. Once arrogant and rude, I had been forever changed by her beauty and kindness - that of an angel.

I have to turn away when I see her smile and watch him, a human on Earth, inferior to me in every way, except right now in this wretched plush form. She loves him. She. Loves. Him. And I am shattered. Though her memories are lost her very soul's warm and kind essence still remains and this draws both him and her together. It is inevitable.

I moved my whole world and battled heaven to be with her and lost. And now I will lose her to him. Our mission will fail. We will never be together at the place we were promised. She will never remember me or our time. And I will lose her before our deadline is over.

Everything has gone downhill. With me losing the most of all.
